Very Chatty Makeup Tutorial

I've never been someone to shy away from being honest, although I do tend to be quite a private person. I know I haven't gone into much detail about how I've felt and how I've been doing after my break-up, so I have decided to talk about it a bit more in this video. I also wanted to discuss what I've been doing lately in order to work on bettering myself both physically and mentally. I still have a long way to go before I start feeling more like myself, but I'm quite happy with the progress so far.

Gift from Ulta

A few months ago I was fortunate enough to work with Ulta on two makeup tutorials. I drove to one of the newest stores in San Diego, met with a manager, and then got my makeup done. The whole experience was a gift in itself and then I got a little box from Ulta in the mail.  If you've seen my unboxing videos, then you know very well how excited I get over new makeup. All but one product was brand new to me, and many of the things I had actually never heard about. You've seen a few of these products pop here and there on Instagram, but here's an overview about what I got and whether I like them or not so much.

Ethereal Eyes with Ulta

Say hello to today's model, my mom. When I went to Ulta a few weeks ago, I was originally going to be the one modeling two of their five spring obsessions but I decided to switch things up last minute. My mom is a woman who has lived through many dramatic makeup eras. There was the overly bronzed 70's, the bright eyeshadows in the 80's, and don't forget about the dark lips in the 90's. For her age, my mom looks amazing but she doesn't like stepping out of her makeup comfort zone very much- even if trying something new will make her look more youthful. For that reason I had Angie try out the "ethereal eyes" trend on my mom, and let's just say that she thought she looked "waumaci" (wow + amazing). 

Sephora VIB Rouge Sale Haul

There are two dates that every beauty lover looks forward to: the spring VIB beauty sale and the sale in November. As much as I love buying makeup, let me be real- Sephora has some really expensive products and brands. I love whenever there's a chance to save a little money at Sephora, because I can finally go for the more pricey products that I've been meaning to try for the longest time. This sale was no exception, I was preparing myself and my wallet for this event for the last month. The result- a pricey haul but I managed to save around $50 and get some good Ebates bucks out of it, so overall it was a success. 

Tutorial | NYE 2014 Look

Yesterday I mentioned that you can never go wrong with gold and today I bring you even more gold! As I said this is one of the few times a year that you can go all out, so why not? I've had this glitter liner sitting in my makeup collection for a few years not knowing how to use it until I saw a bunch of tutorials using glitter liner on the lid. Why did it take me so long to use it like that? I don't know why but damn! I am absolutely obsessed with how this look turned out.
